valkett Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I'm amazed at how many world records are being broken in the swimming races. He is truly a human dolphin. :) Valk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Buckin' Longhorn Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 He's so awesome, but I'm having more fun watching his Mom watching him than I am actually watching him win the races. YKWIM? She's so proud of him. It makes you feel good for all Moms and sons to see their close love and relationship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue G in PA Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 We are so enjoying watching him swim. He had his beginnings swimming in the same club that my kids swim in now (Does that make them Olympic matieral...HAH!). So, my kids are esp. "proud" of his accomplishments. That man is simply amazing and I just love how close he and his mom are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayle in Guatemala Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 He is truly amazing. We only get to see highlights, but, we are so amazed by him! Today on Fox News they were saying he consumes 9,000 calories a day! Can you imagine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaKinVA Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 When my husband and I swam competitively, we just could not eat enough. Literally, you were incredibly hungry all.the.time! My husband, though, looked so thin that the wind would blow him away. Did you guys see Michael's schedule? 6:00am up 6:30am breakfast 7:00am pool, 2400m warm up swim 8:00am competition 2400 cool down swim eat medal platform interview warm up swim competition It went like that until a late dinner and bed at 11:00pm. I just can't imagine doing the competitions plus several 2400m warm ups and cool downs! Plus, he's a GIANT (okay, not 6'8 like one of them, but isn't he like 6'7???), and not a stitch of fat. 9,000 calories a day... man, now there's a diet I could live with:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingChris Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 We think its great. It also makes us happy that he is ADHD, just like some of us. No, ADHDers are not losers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
